Checking redirects

Check how the site redirects the visitor: you will see all the transitions, HTTP codes and the final address.

You can specify a domain or full URL. We check up to 10 consecutive transitions.

301 and 308

Permanent redirects: a signal is sent to search engines to move the page.

302 and 307

Temporary redirects: The address may change later, so they usually do not replace the target page in the index.

Errors

If the server is unavailable, we will show a clear code: DNS error, connection, SSL or timeout.

Checking the site's redirect chain

The tool shows how the server responds to the URL: what code is returned, where the redirection leads, and how many steps the user or crawler takes. This is an important part of technical SEO and site migrations.

HTTP codes in the chain

You will see 301, 302, 307, 308 and other responses. Permanent 301s are used for final page transitions, while temporary redirects are only suitable for temporary scenarios.

Finding extra transitions

A long chain slows down loading and can blur signals. Ideally, the old URL should lead in one redirect to the final relevant page.

Diagnosis of errors

The service shows an error code if the site is not responding. This helps you spot 404s, 500s, SSL/TLS issues, an unreachable domain, or a misconfigured transition from HTTP to HTTPS.

Check after changes

Use the tool after changing CMS, domain, URL structure and www/non-www settings. Check not only the main page, but also key old pages.

SEO tip:Do not direct all remote pages to the main page. For each important URL, choose the closest replacement, and if there is no replacement, correctly render 404 or 410.
